50 Dances. 50 Minutes. 50 Way to Leave Your Lover!

Come watch the fast-paced, adrenalin-fuelled comedy dance show of the ages. Brought to you by Dynamotion, the hearts and brains behind hilarious dance shows Top Town and Mia Blonde: The Ice Dagger. 

Choreographers, Tom Sainsbury and Lara Fischel-Chisholm, were spit-balling one day about Paul Simon’s 1976 hit song, 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover. A provocation then emerged. Could they make a 50 minute dance show with 50 dances all inspired by love, losing love, leaving a lover, and of course, Simon and Garfunkel’s iconic feud? They decided they could, and this is the result. 

Come watch their genius play out on stage. It’ll be mental, it’ll be hilarious, it’ll be more intense than a Les Mills Pump Class after a 4-month lockdown. See you there!
